houses of this city. As far as inquiry can

the firm of which he was so conspicuous a
member. Messrs Kaufman and Runge are
both absent from the city. The former is
in Europe and the latter in New York.

of the dairy and his dairy avcrag,

An Interview .Wlthsa Sensible and
Energetic Farmer.

We take the following from an
interview which took place about the
close Of the old year between cor
respondent of the New Orleans Pic
ayune and a Lincoln county farmer
GLOW did your crop turn out this
year?"
My crop was good this year and
have paid out of debt, q thing ]
haven done before in my exist,
ence."
We'll, how are your ncighbors?"
said l.
IA great many of them have
succeeded in paying out also. 1t
is true" said he, "crops have been
bad this year, and We have had q
great many unfortunate things to
contend with, but we determined in
the spring to work out. | have been
cursed with debt for years. There
seemed, for a long time, nosalvatfon
for me; l tried and tried, to make
expenses meet, but my endeavors
were all of no avail. This year ]
determined that I should be even
with the world and my family Join
cd with me in the determination To
do it. We left off 81 shoes and S.
hats and extravagant living. We
abstained from coffee and tobacco.
We raised our own meat and corn
last year and my wife attended to
the garden, while was in the cot
ton field early and remained late.
We bought nothing we were not
absolutely compelled to have. We
lived at home. Our COWS gave
milk and butter, our chickens in the
markets bought us few delicacies
and our garden supplied the table"
swell, is this the general state Of
affairs in your neighborhood?"
asked 1.
"Yes. There seems to have been
genuine resolutions made this year
among the farmers in my section
We were tired of working hard all
through the year and at its end be
in debt. The people are now on a
big disgust with the credit system.
1t is dangerous with the merchant
and the planter. A man buys indis-
criminately when he has credit, and |
goes frequently beyond his expecta-
tions. The mortgage giving and
taking is dangerous and will, if
carried on, result disastrously to the
country. 1t Is unsafe and unwisc,
and the law should be and / think
will be repealed next year" Says
he: Il stand apart in the world
| owe no one and don't intend to-
What | buy will pay cash for it,
and if haven't got the cash l won't
buy.
How is this as a farming coun-
try?'
"The best know of, and as good
as l want. This year, on one acre
of ground ! raised 300 bushels of
potatoes, and that same acre
have now planted in turnips that
will grow me 100 bushels. Can you
find more productive land than
that? We can raise three crops on
any Of this land, and the yield is
large for Others. We don't want
a better country than this. All we
want is more assistance in producing
what it promises"
you mean you want immigra-
tion2"
"Yes sir, we do. We are offering
Inducements for them TO come. We
ptfer them a country that is unex
celled in climate, in health and a
soil that is equal TO any. Here
may he grow his strawberries which
